Project History Detail 1

Client Project Name Scope of Facilities

Technip Paladin WaGE (2005/6) Detailed design of pipelines (2, 6, 10” x 11km) and associated subsea structures for North Sea field development.

East Gas Company Gulf of Aqaba Pipeline (2002/3) Pre-FEED and FEED engineering for this large diameter (36” x 15km) technically challenging project, including deepwater (900m), rough seabed terrain and seismic hazards. Specified and supervised survey and interpretation of survey results carried out.

Detailed Design, interfaced with onshore pipeline engineering, provided management and specialist engineering for Owner. Contracted to supervise annual IRM.

Retains record to-date for largest diameter pipeline installed in 900m water depth.

BP Tangguh (2002) Concept (Pre-FEED) design for the twin CRA internally clad pipelines (24” x 16km) carrying corrosive fluid in an environment of very high environmental loading. The Pre-FEED included the application of limit state methods to the assessment of the pipeline during operation to determine requirements for measures to prevent spans.




GUPCO Offshore North Sinai (2004) The pre-FEED was carried out to determine the requirements of the pipe and seabed preparation.

Detailed Design (60km, 22” pipeline) interfaced with onshore pipeline engineering.

ConocoPhillips Saturn Field Development (Saturn & Munro pipelines) (2004)

The FEED engineering was carried out and provided the basis for proceeding with the design of an extensive pipeline system in areas of high environmental loading.

Detailed Design of pipeline and associated subsea structures (42km x 14” and 10” x 6km, with 3” methanol).

ConocoPhillips Saturn Field Development (Mimas and Tethys pipelines) (2004)

Detailed Design of pipeline (twin 10” x 12km and 4km) and associated subsea structures.

BP Devenick Field Development (2004)

The Pre-FEED engineering has been carried out by KW for a pipeline (10” x 12km) system transporting high-temperature/high-pressure corrosive fluids. The requirements has been to identify and assess the provision of suitable pipe materials are acceptable costs.




CNR Baobab Field Development (2003/4)

Detailed design of a 1500m deep 12/16” pipe in pipe and 6” single pipe.

Installation support and fitness for purpose assessment.

Shell Howe Field Development (2003/4)

Detailed design of high pressure / high temperature pipe in pipe (14km of 12/8” with 3” piggy back).

ATP Helvellyn Field Development (2003)

FEED and route selection in mobile sand wave areas.

Detailed Design of pipeline (8” x 16km, associated subsea structures and riser.

Shell Howe P2 Development Detailed design of high pressure / high temperature pipe (3.6km of 6” with 3” piggy back).

(2005/6)

Oztas-Peker Marmara Crossing (2005/6)

Detailed design of 36” x 17km pipeline with two landfall crossings.
